Happily Occupied

Hello Friends :)

This little love has been keeping me happily occupied for the past several weeks. Each time I log on to catch up on my blogging, I'm pulled away. Ashanti belongs to our dear friend, Valerie, who is working hard at remaining in our beautiful country. We are helping her by caring for her daughter almost full time. Please pray for all of us. Hope you are all well as I've missed perusing the blogosphere. Happy Fall!

Long Ago They Walked Here

History fascinates me. I hope it's contagious to my children.

We entered the world of the people who lived here long ago and I had to catch my breath for a moment. The foundations of five longhouses were unearthed in this place and reconstructed so we could learn more about the clans that inhabited the very ground we toured.  

The little bit that has been revealed to us through archeological discoveries gives us a hint of their way of life but what we know for sure is that they were people God created, just like us. They lived, built, hunted, rocked babies, and shared stories here. With that knowledge in mind, the history of our Canadian Natives becomes a mystery to be unraveled, learned from and enjoyed.
